The answer

The inhabitants of Paradise will speak to the inhabitants of Hellfire, and vice versa. This will increase the joy of the people of Paradise in God's blessings upon them, and increase the regret and sorrow of the people of Hellfire. The people of Paradise will call out to the people of Hellfire, saying that they have found what their Lord promised them to be true, and they will ask the people of Hellfire if they have found what their Lord promised to be true, to which they will reply, "Yes." Similarly, the people of Hellfire will call out to the people of Paradise, asking them to pour out some water or some of what God has provided for them, to which the people of Paradise will reply that God has forbidden both to the disbelievers. The people of Paradise will also inquire about their companions from this world who are in Hellfire and will see them in Hell, and they will thank God for their salvation. This communication will increase the joy and delight of the people of Paradise, and intensify the sorrow of the people of Hellfire. All worldly relationships will cease on the Day of Judgment, except for the relationship based on piety.
